Wedding Help Please

Recommended Posts

Right here goes to see if anyone can help me. My Son Sam has dropped it in my lap that he is getting married in March next year, my problem is that besides paying for most of the Wedding myself he also wants me to sort the car for the bride and groom to get to the reception, I did offer a fleet of Zeds but as they are only two seaters he said no. So my request is Can anyone of you Gorgeous people on here help me out with something Special that i can Hire/beg/steal/ or borrow for the day which is the 12th of March. I dont mind how far away it is for the special car,i will sort out insurance for it if needed. Thank you and I hope someone can help me make this a special Day for them both :thumbs: Dave

Have a look in yellow pages and the local papers under weddings. My son and his then girlfriend live and work in Oxford but wanted to marry up here. They found two nice old cars as described and also hired a vintage bus to get the guests from the church to the reception as most of them travelled up for the weekend. The bus really made the day as although peeps knew that transport would be provided no -one was expecting that.

went to a wedding in LOndon where they hired a old london double decker. Its was very good and the nice thing was everyone got on it from the church to the reception. On board was a glass of bubbly for everyone during the journey. It worked really well

Falcon Performance (through R35LEE) provided wedding cars.

Fair choice to choose from too.

 

Failing that, if you want a big ole loud Aussie V8, I dont mind acting chauffer for the day.

 

No kit cars lol. he just wanted something different to get to the reception. I have a mate who has come up with a 1942 Rolls. and another with a DB5 so we are getting there And thanks for all the advice. by the way what is a Aussie V8? Cheers Dave :thumbs:
